Insulated sectional garage doors: what matters for Fulham garages
What thickness should you pick?
Most domestic sectional doors use panels of about 40 to 42 mm. Doors sold as thermally broken use thicker panels, often around 67 mm, with a break between the inner and outer skins so cold is not conducted straight through. The thicker option costs more and needs a little more headroom, so it makes most sense on integral or heated garages.
How long do the panels last?
Galvanised and factory-coated steel panels are made for many years of outdoor use. Look after the coating with an occasional wash, keep the bottom seal clear of grit and leaves, and book a service every year or so to keep springs and cables in order.
Options and upgrades for Fulham homes
- Panel thicknessTypically 40 to 42 mm double-skin, or thicker thermally broken panels on premium ranges.
- Electric or manualMost insulated doors are motorised; manual operation is possible on lighter doors.
- Any finishRibbed, flush, cassette, woodgrain and coloured finishes are all available with insulated panels.
- Window insertsAdd glazed inserts for daylight; they slightly reduce thermal performance.

What rules apply in Fulham?
Fulham falls under the local London borough council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.

Questions from Fulham customers
Can an insulated door be fitted to an older garage?
Usually, yes. The opening needs to be sound and square enough to fix to, with enough headroom above the opening and room either side for the tracks. The survey checks all three.
How much does an insulated sectional garage door cost?
Guide prices for a single insulated sectional door supplied and fitted with an electric operator run £2,095–£3,495, from a standard door up to thermally broken panels. Size, finish, glazing and the state of the opening all move the figure, so we confirm a fixed price after a free survey.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Fulham?
Usually not.

If in doubt, check with the local London borough council.
